There has been no final decision on whether some or all parts of nova-network will be removed. It will not happen in Grizzly. While Quantum can do many things that nova-network cannot, there are still some use cases that nova-network can do but Quantum cannot. In Grizzly we're working to handle these. Assuming that is achieved, we might consider removing/deprecating some aspects of nova-network in favor of Quantum. At this point, nova-network is frozen in terms of new features, so the cost of maintaining it is relatively low.
